The mirror forms an image of the window that is the same height as the window and the same distance from the mirror as the window is from the building. So, the height of the window is equal to the distance from Luciane's eye to the mirror plus the distance from the mirror to the building. This is 1.76 m + 35.3 m = 37.06 m. Rounding to the nearest meter, the height of the window is 37 m.
